The result is an
upward push on the wing--lift!
.Bernoulli’s Principle: Air moving over the wing
moves faster than the air below. Faster-moving
air above exerts less pressure on the wing than
the slower-moving air below.

how can
it fly? Can you see the airfoil?
Why is the wing small?
What other aerodynamic devices can you see?
.This US Navy Carrier Jet has a very small wing.

How can an airplane fly upside down?

pilot usually uses the
rudder along with the
ailerons to turn the
